Projeto Ithaca - Destruição Alienígena

I really wish IMDb would screen reviews and not allow the ones by people like andrewrye who don't know what an opinion is. This movie wasn't great and was kind of a head scratcher but was not that bad. The acting was decent and so were the creature effects.

Ive seen a lot of scify. I can tell the good from the bad. This movie, no matter what you think of it, is much better than some things Ive seen like battle beyond the stars. This was one of the better ones. It clearly had a good budget with good cgi and good acting and you really wanted to turn the next page. It only suffered in being a little slow. It was surprisingly thought provoking and new and thus contributes to the genre. Im still trying to understand it fully. Here is my rating;

Plot: 6 out of 10, a little slow but interesting cgi: clearly professional... 7 out of 10 acting: 7 out of 10... slow but very well done science: hard to say, requires more thought ... seems like 6 out of 10 but could be wrong, some things didnt make sense Thought provoking: 9 out of 10 without question. contribution to the genre: 7 out of 10. Fresh approach, new ideas Gore avoidance: 5 out of 10, mostly ok accept for one nasty scene.

Overall maybe not A plus but certainly engaging and memorable, better than a hard to watch silly B movie despite being a little slow. Certainly leans more towards realistic sci fy, not cartoonish. Slow at first.

Most of the negative reviews, 5 and under, are not from those of us who understand for what it is. Not the best Sci/Fi movie but worthy of watching. People waiting for a movie with comic book heroes , space explosions, alien walking human like torsos, special effects etc. will dis this movie. This is a thinkers movie , the 'what if' plot , being the gist of the of this Sci/Fi drama.

I really wish IMDB would screen reviewers. The other two either are friends of the actors or paid by the production company.

Bad acting, boring and snail pace movement with no direction. What else... bad writing, ridiculous special effects and just plain blahhhh.

It is mostly just a group of people (and yes, they know each other...mostly) with no acting skills talking with occasional flashback that made no sense. Difficult to follow and hard to watch. Also a bad version of the Matrix's Oracle (an obvious copy), and I'm still trying to work out the 'Generals' rank with staff sergeant stripes? pips changed from 3 to 1 during the movie, perhaps someone could enlighten me.

Don't waste your time, not even worthy of a B grade, a 2 because I was having a good day.

"Project Ithaca" (2019) had its moments and had a potential - i liked the concept (main idea), but unfortunately the execution wasn't any good. The plot left me confused, but its not its biggest fault - biggest fault (and there are many of them), is that this movie had any character development - i did not care about anyone or anything here. Also dialog were only like exposition - its like characters were trying to explain the plot to each other and audiences during the whole movie, which at running time 1 h 24 min. dragged.

Overall, this movie wasn't well made and had a very confusing plot. Add here a small budget and zero creativity to the material, and you have a bad movie. Its not a worst movie ever, but that does not give it additional points.
